Hello, I checked your profile and I'm impressed. My Payment Terms are different though; take a look and let me know if that's something you can do:


The threat is contained in a zip file called payment rates.vbs. If you get this message in your CC mailbox just delete it

Isabel, so sorry to hear that. I was lucky that the antivirus detected it or I would have opened it too. Hope no one else gets caught.
